   I lock my phone and listen to Dan and Phil chatting downstairs. Dan and Phil. Alyssa's high pitched giggle echoes up the stairs, and I hear Phil laugh along. Great. My one chance at meeting my idols, and she ruined it. And Leanne hates me. She'll try to get them to adopt Alyssa.

  Then I hear footsteps coming up the stairs, and someone knocks on my door. "Amy?" Leanne says, her voice laced with false cheerfulness. "Can you come to the recreation room for a minute?"
   I shake my head no, but she can't see that, so I push past Leanna and head downstairs, and through the hallway into the yellow rec room. Yellow. Yuck. Who the hell paints a room yellow? Turquoise is my colour of choice.
  "Hi Amy," Dan says cheerily. I smile and look at my feet. My well worn Winnie The Pooh socks snugly fit them well. Leanne shuts the door behind her, and sets down a clipboard on the table.

  "Amy, Daniel and Phillip have decided that they would like to adopt you,"
  My jaw drops open and I stare at them in shock. Oh my GOD. I am literally about to scream something either rude or fangirl-y, but I decide neither of them would be appropriate.
I'm on the verge of tears, I'm so emotional. My chest is rising and falling rapidly, and I want to say something, anything, but I can't! The words won't come at all, no matter how hard I try!
"Would you like help packing, while Dan signs the papers?" Phil asks, and I nod excitedly. We jog up the stairs, Phil forgetting to take off his shoes (again). I drag out my pink and white polka dot suitcase that I've been yearning to use, and start stuffing clothes into it rapidly, clothes, makeup, books, and finally, my phone and iPad.
"I see you're not a tidy person" Phil laughs. I start to fold them up, when he says- "oh no, it's fine. I'm so untidy as well!" I smile, and my eyes meet his. Blue, carefree eyes gazing into my empty brown ones.

  "We can put the piano in the back of the car," Dan says, walking into the room abruptly, causing me to snap out of my idol fixation.
"Good idea Dan!" Phil exclaims, and I zip up my suitcase, and shove my other possessions into my school bag.
  "You ready to go, Amy?" Says Dan, the keyboard in his hands. I take a deep inhale and nod. Hell yes.
